HELP I forget what the 3-day pre-op diet is!



Recommended Posts

I am scheduled for surgery on Monday, Sept. 20th. so have to start my 3-day liquid diet tomorrow and I can't remember what I am allowed to have!!! I'm sure I have it somewhere but can't find it. I know it is Clear liquids but can't remember if I am allowed Jello, tea etc.

My surgeon is Dr. Pompa and I am with Weight Loss Forever, Saskatoon so if any of you fellow WLF people that are familiar with their plan can help me out I would really appreciate it. I really need to spend some time tomorrow getting everything together!! I'm usually so organized....thanks again. :)

Email your coordinator if that who is initially gave it to you. I used Dr. Pompa also but I worked directly with their nutritionist Daniella, the one she gave me was for like 2 weeks. I talked her into letting me do a modified one that only covered around 6 days pre-op then I begged her to let me have some food the night before surgery so I could sleep with a full belly. She only let me have some Soup or salad. I had a big bowl of pintos and cheese. I fessed up and she said at least i went for Protein. LOL. I would say to ask Calgarygirl but she is already in TJ waiting for her surgery tomorrow. Not sure if she will see this before then.

I am guessing it is just Clear Liquids if it is only for 3 days. That would be chicken broth, Water, Jello, Protein drinks, crystal light and tea.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
